Growing up, Big Pingus was always in the shadow of his more famous cousin, Pingu. No matter how many weightlifting trophies he brought home or how many hotdog eating contests he won, his parents were always asking why he didn't go into children's TV like his cousin.
Things were rough for a while but after Pingu had a cocaine fuelled breakdown during his stint as a horror director, he was able to patch things up with his cousin in rehab and now both Pingu and Big Pingus are doing a lot better.
